AccuRotor EzRod

The AccuRotor EzRod is a rotarod system designed for testing balance and coordination in mice and rats. It works with Fusion software to set up trials at constant speeds or with variable acceleration. The system automatically stops when a fall is detected by infrared sensors. The Fusion software can manage up to 16 EzRods per computer, allowing researchers to quickly start new tests after a subject falls, making it ideal for high-throughput experiments.

Description

Overview

The AccuRotor EzRod single animal rotarod is designed for balance and coordination testing of mice and rats. In conjunction with the Fusion software, the AccuRotor EzRod provides a user friendly platform for setting up simple constant speed trials or complex variable acceleration trials. Fusion will also automatically stop the experiment when a fall is detected by IR sensors within the unit.

The Fusion software can handle up to 16 EzRods per computer (depending on the specifications of the computer). This allows a researcher to immediately start testing another subject after the previous subject falls off of the rod, making the EzRod a valuable asset for high throughput experiments.

AccuPacer Mouse Treadmill

The Omnitech AccuPacer Treadmill is designed for studying exercise-related paradigms such as muscle atrophy, stress, running, and fatigue in animals. It features a belt driven by a DC servomotor for precise speed control, adjustable from 0 to 100 meters per minute, with an optional motorized grade adjuster for incline. Each animal runs in its own separated lane, with individual shock grids for training, and the treadmill uses both negative and positive stimuli to reduce training time. Additional features include independent lanes, waste collection trays, and air-tight runways for optional integration with a metabolic system.

AccuRotor Four Animal Rotarod

The AccuRotor Computerized Rota-Rod is designed for balance and coordination testing in mice and rats, offering features like customizable constant-speed and acceleration trials. It uses a precise DC servo motor for smooth rotation, with speeds ranging from 0.0 to 100.0 RPM, and can handle complex acceleration profiles, including forward/reverse rocking. The system includes fall detection via optical sensors, eliminating issues with mechanical systems, and records trial duration or fall counts. It supports up to four animals simultaneously, with adjustable lanes and easy-to-use software that offers trial customization, real-time data recording, and export to Excel. The system is adaptable for both mice and rats, with removable rat adapters, and provides simple USB connectivity for easy setup.

Activity Wheel

The Activity Wheel is designed to measure voluntary physical activity in rodents, making it an essential tool for research in exercise physiology, motivation, and circadian rhythm regulation. By capturing running behavior in real time, the wheel allows researchers to assess activity patterns, endurance, and daily rhythmicity. Integrated with a magnetic sensor and Fusion Software, it provides precise, automated tracking of wheel revolutions. The standard 6.5” wheel suits mice, with optional sizing for rats or custom needs. An optional Dual Wheel Kit enables simultaneous testing of two animals, supporting high-throughput, behaviorally relevant data collection in a naturalistic and enriched environment.
